Hello Teresa,

MS Word documents lose their formatting in TextEdit, but it is usually quite 
well conserved in Pages.

However, any tables show up in Pages as a highlighted space. I've found that 
copying this space into a Numbers document gives me the table.

This isn't good, but it's a workaround that works.

Cheers,

Anne
